After the recent performance of the Kasach player in the recently passed Poland PGL Major Krakow, the main Counter-Strike:Global Offensive team of Kazakhstan Gambit Gaming have announced the acquisition of Kazakhstan Abay 'HObbit' Khassenov.


Remind you that the player all this time was on loan from the Kasach team of Kazakhstan TENGRi.
